Congress hand stained with Muslims blood: Salman Khurshid
Aligarh: In a statement which might not go down well with his party, former Union minister Salman Khurshid has said there are Muslims' blood stains on the Congress hands.
Pushed to the wall with a point blank query from an Aligarh Muslim University (AMU) student at a programme as to how the Congress will wash off the blood stains of Muslims on its hands, he said, "It is a political question. There is blood on our hands. I am also a part of the Congress so let me say it, we have blood on our hands. Is this why you are trying to tell us that if someone attacks you, we must not come forward to protect you?"
"I am telling you. We are ready to show the blood on our hands so that you realise that you too must not get blood on your hands. If you attack them, you are the ones who would get stains on your hands," he said at an AMU event on Sunday.
"Learn something from our past. Learn from our history and don't create such situations for yourself where if you come back to Aligarh Muslim University after 10 years, you find no one like yourself putting out questions," he said.
The student had asked, "The first amendment was in 1948. Then there was Presidential order in 1950... after that Hasanpura, Maliana, Muzaffarnagar and there is a long list of riots under the Congress regime. Then there was the opening of the gates of Babri Masjid, placing idols inside and then the demolition of Babri Masjid while the Congress was in power at the Centre. Congress has Muslims' blood on its hands. With what words will you wash them off?"
The former Union minister was the chief guest at the annual function of BR Ambedkar Hall of the AMU.

Swedish Scientists Launch Online Pathology Atlas of All Known Cancer Genes
A team of Swedish researchers has published today an interactive map for the visualization of the effects of individual cancer genes that supports personalized medicine.
The new Pathology Atlas is an open access online resource containing genomic data from over 8,000 patients across 17 major cancer types. By typing in the name of any gene involved in cancer, anyone can visualize how it is expressed and how it affects survival in each type of cancer studied. Its release is accompanied by a publication in Science describing the analysis and its results.
To build such a massive database, the team used a national supercomputer center to analyze more than 2.5 petabytes of public data from the Cancer Genome Atlas. The work has been coordinated by Professor Mathias Uhlén, a renowned entrepreneur and researcher, who is also the Director of the consortium behind the Human Protein Atlas, a project gathering data from all human genes that is updated yearly with the latest discoveries, which the new Pathology Atlas will be part of.
"This study differs from earlier cancer investigations since it is not focused on the mutations in cancers, but the downstream effects of such mutations across all protein-coding genes," said Uhlén in a statement. "We show, for the first time, the influence of the gene expression levels demonstrating the power of "big data" to change how medical research is performed. It also shows the advantage of open access policies in science in which researchers share data with each other to allow integration of huge amounts of data from different sources."
The results of the study have already proved useful in a study focusing on lung and colorectal cancer at Uppsala University led by Professor Fredrik Ponten. The team used a selection of genes identified by the Atlas to analyze gene expression patterns in cancer patients that yielded results consistent with those of the Atlas. Which suggests the Pathology Atlas might become a useful tool for researchers worldwide to develop personalized treatments for cancer.

The Hoosier Gardener: Plants in the ground, ready for summer
Planting trial plants can indeed be a trial.
The Hoosier Gardener: Plants in the ground, ready for summer Planting trial plants can indeed be a trial. Check out this story on IndyStar.com: https://www.indystar.com/story/news/real-estate/2019/07/03/hoosier-gardener-plants-ground-ready-summer/1622147001/

Gardeners are nothing if not optimistic.
Optimism was the driving factor for my spending the last few days of June and first few days of July planting tomatoes and peppers. These are trial plants and I admit this late planting will be a trial for them.
But I gave them their best shot. I planted them in Smart Pots and placed them in the bed where I usually grow tomatoes and peppers. They are in pots because it's a small space and I've planted these veggies there for several years. Using the pots is a modified crop rotation. It removes the plants from an area where there could be disease or insect problems building up. I'm still trying to figure out how to support the tomatoes when they are in these pots.
I'm trialing a couple of new Wave petunias, and Proven Winners' Rockin' Blue Suede Shoes, a hybrid similar to Black and Blue salvia, all in the ground. There also are some new perennial salvias, including a couple more in the Marvel series. Unlike many hardy, perennial salvia, this series from Darwin Perennials blooms all summer. The Rose Marvel Salvia is fantastic. Some of the Marvel salvias were in garden centers this spring and are available at online retailers.

Weedy mess
Crops of several species of weeds are thriving in my back yard thanks to all that rain. A while back, several plants were pulled out, including shrubs, which exposed a lot of soil. I remember Claudia West's talk two years ago at the annual Newfields Horticultural Symposium. The co-author of "Planting in a Post Wild World," she seared in my brain that plants are programmed to cover the soil. Weeds are opportunistic, so they are just doing their job. Give them bare soil and they will take hold.
Summer protection
As hot and humid as it's been, I only "allow" myself about 15 or 20 minutes outside pulling weeds, planting, watering, mowing the lawn, before returning to my home's cooler environment for another 15 or 20 minutes. I also drink a lot of water.
I usually wear white, long-sleeved shirts (Goodwill purchases) when I work outdoors, a straw hat and sunglasses. Something must have imprinted on me in my youth because my grandfather, a greenhouse grower and florist, also wore white, long-sleeved shirts.
Last year my dermatologist found a couple of spots – one on my arm and one on my back – that "had abnormal cells." Although it wasn't skin cancer, the area could possibly turn into that, so the spots were removed.
I told her I didn't usually wear sunscreen but rather the shirt and hat and she said that really was just as good. However, you protect yourself, just do it, and get yourself checked regularly.

Abigail Kofi Kim (born July 19, 1998) is a professional soccer player who plays as a forward. Born in Liberia, she has represented the United States internationally up to under-23 level.

Having played college soccer for California Golden Bears, she has since appeared for LA Galaxy OC in United Women's Soccer, Orlando Pride of the National Women's Soccer League and in Italy for Serie A team Fiorentina.

Early life
Born in Monrovia, Liberia, Kim grew up with an adopted family in Vashon, Washington. Kim attended Seattle Christian High School and helped lead the school's soccer team to the 1A state championship title in 2015, scoring 41 goals in 20 matches and was named MVP by the Washington State Soccer Coaches Association. She played club soccer for Pacific Northwest SC, winning the state championship in 2013 and 2014. Kim was also a track and field athlete for Seattle Christian, helping the team to three consecutive state titles.

California Golden Bears
Kim was recruited to play college soccer for California Golden Bears. She was a four-year starter between 2016 and 2019, notably earning Pac-12 All-Freshman Team honors in a 2016 season in which she saw action in all 21 of Cal's matches, leading all freshmen with 16 starts. In 2019, Kim was named captain of the team for her senior season. A legal studies major, Kim was also a Pac-12 All-Academic Honorable Mention in 2018.

In the 2019 offseason, Kim joined UWS club LA Galaxy OC, making three appearances as the team won the National Championship.

Club career

Fiorentina
Kim was selected in the third round (26th overall) of the 2020 NWSL College Draft by Orlando Pride. Having joined up with the team for preseason, all NWSL activities were shut down just three days in to camp due to the developing coronavirus pandemic. With the ongoing disruption of the 2020 NWSL season and having rehabbed from a knee injury sustained while training over summer, Kim elected to sign in Italy with Serie A team Fiorentina in June. With issues surrounding travel and quarantines, Kim's signing wasn't officially completed until October 17. She made her debut on November 1, starting in a 6–1 victory against second division ASD Riozzese in the 2020–21 Coppa Italia group stage. She scored her first goal for the club on December 13 in a 1–1 Serie A draw with Empoli. Three days later she made her UEFA Women's Champions League debut, starting in a Round of 32 second leg away at Slavia Prague. Fiorentina scored a stoppage time winner to progress 3–2 on aggregate.

Orlando Pride
After a spell in Italy, Kim returned to Orlando Pride for preseason ahead of the 2021 season and signed a two-year contract with an option for an additional year on March 2, 2021. She made her professional NWSL debut for the club on April 10, 2021, as a 78th minute substitute in the team's Challenge Cup opener against Racing Louisville and scored to give Orlando the lead in the 88th minute. The game finished 2–2. On August 24, 2022, Kim was waived. In two seasons she made 21 appearances in all competitions, scoring one goal and two assists.

International career
Kim has represented the United States at the under-18 and under-20 and under-23 levels.

In January 2018, Kim was part of the under-20 team that finished as runners-up at the 2018 CONCACAF Women's U-20 Championship, losing the final to Mexico in a penalty shoot-out. In August 2018, Kim was also named to the 2018 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup squad. The team failed to get out of the group behind Spain and Japan as Kim made three substitute appearances.

In April 2019, Kim was called up to the under-23 team to play at the La Manga U23 tournament, starting in two of the three games.

The evolution of the famous Erakle now in it's 3rd dimension. Erakle Air has an improved blend of rigidity and compliance due to refined sculpture of the seatstays and chainstays. The massive bottom bracket area and rectangular down tube remain to deliver the power. The new Erakle has a better flow when the descents are fast and and through curves and the new fork improves tracking and aerodynamics. The ride characteristics are described as fluid, comfortable and fast. The ride is free of vibration and has quick responsive acceleration.
Like the AR-01 the Erakle has 3 choices of brakes; normal brake calipers, disc or direct drive with mounting under the chainstays. The lines are clean with internal cable routing for either electronic or mechanical shifting systems. The Erakle AIR is sold as a frameset with complete custom component selection available.

First, there have been quite a few new additions to the DVRE catalog since last months Blog. I am attempting to add 2 new tracks every week for as long as its humanly possible. Please feel free to Follow Me on Legitmix to stay updated on all new tracks.
I have also re-invested in my DJ career for the first time in 30 years. It is my hope and desire to start working again and bring my tracks to the people personally.
So last month I detailed where I get my inspiration from. This month I'll discuss the Tools I use to create.
Over the years I have probably used most of the available out there, starting with a little program called Cool Edit back in the 90's. Some of the audio programs that have made it onto my PC's over the years are: SoundForge, ProTools, Adobe Audtion (formerly Cool Edit), Acid, Audacity, Fruity Loops, Abelton Live. Cakewalk and Reason.
After a ton of trial and error, I eventually decided to use a combination of 3 programs: Abelton Live (80%), Fruity Loops (18%) and Audition (2%).
Abelton sees the bulk of the duty when I work, as it does for most of the people who use it. One thing I do not use Abelton for is general Rhythm Track Creation.....I choose to use Fruity Loops for that. Within both programs I have access to a host of plug-ins, but my biggest "Go To" plug-ins for Abelton are the iZotope Ozone bundle plus 2 little ImageLine VST's called Gross Beat and Maximizer.
There were 4 big turning points for my editing since I jumped back in to it approximately 4 years ago. The first is when I started using Fruity Loops to create my rhythm tracks in combination with Adobe Audition as my editor. The second was replacing Audition with Abelton Live 8 as my main DAW, giving me the ability to warp (aka tempo correct) tracks easily. The third was using Maximizer during my final stages to get that "Full" feeling to the tracks. The last happend about a year ago when I finally added the Ozone 6 pack to my bag of tricks. Since that point, virtually everyone has noticed a significantly positive difference in how my tracks sound overall.
I am a Windows guy. I know there are a ton of people out there who say that Mac is the only way to go, but nowadays I don't see that as a rule anymore. I use 2 22" monitors...one with fruity Loops open and the other with Abelton Live 9.

Oh my! If this article is even a little bit true, which I'm sure it is!, we are in big trouble as a nation. Every voting American, especially Hillary supporters, needs to read this and think about who they are considering for the oval office. It's bad enough that Hillary is as crooked as she is, from what we all know already, but this article shows the connections between the Islamic terrorist organizations, Al Queda, IMMA, even Bin Laden himself and 911, and Hillary's closest confident and ally, assistant, surrogate daughter, and only God knows what else, Huma Abedin. Wonder where all the money has come from to help Hillary reach the position she has? Read this article and you will find out. The money trail is only two handshakes away from some of the worst terror funding organizations in the world. If Hillary gets to be president, guess who the First Lady is going to be? Americans WAKE UP! Realize that these people are evil and have no business leading the nation! You may not like Donald Trump, but think what will happen if these two people get in! If you care about this country and it's future I urge you to forward this article to every concerned, voting citizen you know. They need to be, no MUST BE, stopped!

Village invites public to learn about water project
By Greg Klein Staff Report
The village of Gilbertsville will host an information session on the water system upgrade with a tour beginning at 6 p.m. Thursday, July 18.
Mayor Mark Muller and Engineer Jack Dodson will host the tour and answer questions.
Muller, who took over as mayor in April, said the $5.5 million project has been a village need for nearly a decade.
"The beginning of this project stretches, I think, two mayors back before me," he said.
However, with work beginning this year and scheduled until next spring, Muller said he thought it would be a good time to show residents what work is taking place and assure them it won't destroy the village budget.
"This is mostly coming from grants, but we did take out a small loan," he said.
Residents interested on taking the tour should meet at 6 p.m. Thursday, July 18, in front of the Butternut Valley Grange Hall at 6 Bloom St. A Gilbertsville-Mount Upton school bus will provide transportation for the tour.
The bus will return to the Grange Hall about 6:30 p.m. for a meeting and light refreshments in the basement. Muller said he will talk about the finances for the project.
"Things just sometimes happen when people talk," he said, "so I thought it would be good to get everyone together, get the Grange and the school involved. I just want people to know what is going on."
The work has begun with old pipes being dug up and replaced, Muller said. A new water tank has been installed, and it includes a filter system to cut down on the manganese in the water. Work is scheduled to continue through the fall and pick up next spring. It is scheduled to end in April, but the completion date could be pushed back, depending on winter weather, Muller said.
There will also be a village meeting at 7 p.m. Monday, July 15, at the village office. Muller said Dodson will also attend the village meeting, and will be available to answer questions both days.

Bears banking on defense @ home field advantage against defending champion Eagles
The Bears are locked into the number three seed in the NFC so they will open the playoffs at home Sunday afternoon against the Eagles.
Both teams have momentum. The Bears have won their last four games and nine of their last ten. The Eagles have won their last three games and five of their last six.
The Eagles have been a different team since Nick Foles took over at quarterback three weeks ago when Carson Wentz went down with a back injury. Can Foles work the same playoff magic that he did last year when the led the Eagles to the Super Bowl Championship and he was named the Super Bowl MVP?
Two weeks ago he set an Eagles' record by passing for 471 yards in a win against the Texans. Foles suffered bruised ribs last week, but the Eagles say he'll be ready to face the Bears.
The other key guy to watch on the Eagles' is tight end Zach Ertz. He set an NFL record for tight ends this season by hauling in 116 receptions for more than 11 hundred yards and eight touchdowns. When the pressure is on Foles, Ertz is his safety valve.
And the Bears will be bringing the pressure with the best defense in the NFL. Statistically they finished the regular season ranked third in the league in yards allowed. But they gave up the fewest points of any defense. They were number one against the run, and they led the league in takeaways with 36. That defense will be ready Sunday.
The big question for the Bears is will Mitch Trubisky be ready? This will be his first playoff experience. Can he step up and avoid costly mistakes? Having this first playoff game of his career at home with the crowd in his corner will certainly help, plus the Eagles banged-up defense ranks only 23rd in the NFL.
There aren't many Bears on this roster who have playoff experience. Matt Nagy wants his guys to know the action and the atmosphere will be much different than it was during the regular season. He said this week quote, "The intensity is completely different. It's not even close. I think that's the message that our guys have got to understand, the guys that haven't been a part of it. This is where it gets real."
Again for the inexperienced Bears having this first playoff game at home is huge. During the regular season the Bears were 7-1 at Soldier Field. Their only loss was to the Patriots.
Kickoff Sunday will be at 3:40 Central Time, 4:40 Eastern.

Sabotage (2014 film)


1. DIY Halloween decorations: Make glow-in-the-dark eyes for the perfect scary décor.
2. Tame wrapping paper rolls: Slide empty toilet paper tubes over wrapping paper to keep it from unraveling. Tube not big enough? Cut it the long way, then snap around the paper roll. Have longer rolls? Try using two, one at each end for extra strength!
3. Extend the vacuum: Your vacuum attachments just won't fit in that windowsill track or under the sink? Attach a toilet paper roll to the end of the vacuum hose, wrap your hand around the connection and shape cardboard into the perfect crevice tool!
4. Seed starters: Place several tubes open-end up in a shallow dish or plastic container. Fill with potting soil, and plant seeds. When plants are ready to be transferred to the garden, simply bury the entire tube – it will eventually decompose naturally!
5. DIY birdfeeder: Slather an empty tube in peanut butter, then roll in birdseed. Place the tube over a low branch and watch the birds flock!
6. Media cord taming: Use cardboard tubes to organize cords is a great organizing hack around the house.
7. Eyeglass case: This only requires three things you probably already have: empty toilet paper roll, fabric, craft glue. It's so easy!
8. Wall artwork: There are thousands of decorating ideas out there, but this is my favorite. It's simple, subtle and beautiful!
9. Desktop organizer: Use a glue stick and attach decorative paper around three rolls. Save some paper at the bottom, this will make the "floor" so that the pencils don´t fall through. Glue the three rolls together in a circle with some multi purpose glue. Stand them up or lay on their side and you've got an instantly organized pencil, pen or scissors holder!
10. Small gift boxes: Fold, paint and tag toilet paper rolls for the perfect .
11. Fire starter: There is nothing I love more than sitting around my fire pit on a cool evening. Finding the right sticks or paper to get the flames going can be tough. So I have made fire starters by stuffing an empty toilet paper roll with leftover dryer lint. Wrap the whole thing in newspaper, tuck in the ends – and there you have it! Light that puppy on fire and watch it burn!
12. Octopus : My sister made these with the kids over the holidays, and they made the perfect wacky tree decorations! They were so easy, and used items that were already around the house.
13. Hosiery drawer organizer: Line a drawer with empty toilet paper rolls, and stuff with pairs of socks, nylons or underwear.
14. Bowling: Cover ten rolls with white butcher paper. Draw a red line about an inch from the top. Roll out a long strip of butcher paper (6-8 feet). Draw 10 rings in a pyramid shape at one end. Stand up each toilet paper roll on each circle. Use a light weight plastic ball to knock them down! This is a great rainy day activity.
15. Napkin rings: Cover paper tubes with wrapping, or other thin paper to make napkin rings. Simply cut the tubes to size and use a decorative paper. Jazz them up with stickers, beads, feathers or faux berries.
17. Refrigerator pen holder: Slightly flatten the toilet paper roll and tape closed at one end. Wrap in decorative paper, and glue a strong magnet to the back. Stick to the fridge and fill with pens! Place it next to a magnetic notepad and you'll never search for a pen when the peanut butter runs out again!
18. iPhone/iPod speaker: Cut an opening the size of your device in the cardboard roll. Stick two pushpins into the backside of the roll as "legs". Place device into the opening and lean it back. Voila! Your beats are amplified. Check out these step-by-step instructions for a if mine make zero sense. It happens.
19. Compost booster: Toilet paper rolls can be added to your compost – it is a high carbon item that will complement high nitrogen food waste well.
20. Crochet aid: When crocheting or knitting, wrap yarn around a toilet paper tube to keep it from tangling.
21. Worm wrangler: If you garden, you know that cutworms can destroy seedlings. You can make a simple "cutworm collar" to place around your seedlings from a toilet paper tube. Cut them into two inch lengths and place around each plant, pushing it at least a half an inch into the surface of the soil. The tubes will protect your seedlings from cutworms, and will fall apart within a few weeks in the garden—just when your seedlings will be too large to sustain any damage.
I use it in my botany class to plant seeds and to reduce the materials that go to the landfills.


Chris Evans announced that he is officially wrapping his as Captain America. He said on Twitter, "playing this role the last 8 years has been an honor." After officially wrapping up Avengers 4, which will be released May 3, 2019, he said, "It was an emotional day to say the least. To everyone in front of the camera, behind the camera, and in the audience, thank you for the memories! Eternally grateful.
Evans first played Steve Rogers aka Captain America in 2011's Captain America: The First Avenger. He would go on to play the fan favorite in The Avengers (2012), Captain America: The Winter Soldier(2014), Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015), Captain America: Civil War (2016), and Avengers: Infinity War (2018), as well as cameo in a number of other Marvel films.
On his Twitter account There was an outpouring of reaction to his tweet, most sad, with even some of the biggest stars in the superhero world weighing in.
Marvel cast Evans in March 2010 at a time when it was unclear if fans would be accepting of the actor, who'd already played Johnny Storm in Fantastic Four films in 2005 and 2007. Evans himself wasn't initially sure if he would accept the role after Marvel offered it to him, but eventually he did, beating out stars such as John Krasinski, Garrett Hedlund, Michael Cassidy, Patrick Flueger, Scott Porter, Wilson Bethel, Mike Vogel and Chace Crawford.
THR reported at the time there was concern Evans wouldn't accept for another reason: He'd already signed on to the Anna Faris romantic comedy What's Your Number?, which was scheduled to shoot at the same time as The First Avenger. Evans wound up doing both movies, and Marvel's Kevin Feige once said it was Evans' mother who convinced him to take the role.
Chris Evans will make his final appearance as Captain America in the currently untitled Avengers 4. While Evans' Captain America had a relatively small amount of screentime in this year's Avengers: Infinity War, the writers of that movie and Avengers 4 have said there will be much more Cap in the next installment.

Just as there are four seasons in a year, women experience four "seasons," or menstrual phases—menstruation, pre-ovulation, ovulation, pre-menstruation—throughout a menstrual cycle. The menstrual phases are brought on by changing levels of hormones and each phase gives women access to different strengths and abilities.
We'll discuss how our "inner seasons" effect us physically, emotionally and mentally and how to use this knowledge as a tool to optimize and plan our personal and professional lives. We'll also cover charting basics for cycle awareness, pregnancy achievement or avoidance, and herbal remedies for a healthy cycle.
A copy of the Menstrual Calendar Journal: Track Your Cycle, Change your Life workbook is included (see www.kapu.community/track to learn more).
Veronica Ricksen is a clinical Western herbalist at the Ohlone Herbal Center and creator of Kapu, a holistic care company for women.
The creation of the Menstrual Calendar Journal began in 2015, when Veronica had to learn about her menstrual cycle and fertility after 10 years of being on hormonal birth control. After years of sharing all the knowledge and magic she gleaned from the practice of tracking her cycle with her friends, she decided to make a comprehensive resource for other women.
She hopes daily use of this calendar assists women in discovering the gift of the menstrual cycle, so they can live with more flow, ease and happiness.

Although the term Pet Friendly Winery is often used, most often it really means a Dog-Friendly Winery. Just because a facility is a Pet Friendly Winery, doesn't mean your pet alligator is going to be welcome. Many Wineries are Pet Friendly assuming of course that the pet is friendly and well behaved. No one working at the Winery or visiting it wants to be accosted by an ill-mannered pet. If you are visiting a Dog Friendly Winery, make sure that your dog is comfortable in situations with lots of strangers and assume that there will be other dogs there as well. Some Wineries are not considered Pet Friendly but what that really means is that they are not "guest" pet friendly. Many Wineries have dogs or and are not prepared to handle additional animals. Winery-Sage.com considers an establishment to be a Dog Friendly Winery (or Pet Friendly Winery for you cat lovers) if guest pets are allowed.

Second City's deliciously unsubtle spoof
Chris Jones, Tribune criticCHICAGO TRIBUNE
If you're weary of encountering the Rod Blagojevich self-justification media tour, live from New York, at all hours of the day and night, Second City might have just the anti-Blago catharsis you need.
"Rod Blagojevich Superstar, Are you as nuts as we think you are?" goes the opening lyric to the deliciously unsubtle show subtitled "Rodspell!"
In this hourlong, no-holds-barred spoof -- a must-see for local political junkies and connoisseurs of that very special Illinois brand of ethical governance -- the laughs unspool like wavy strands of thick, dark hair traveling through the infamous Blagojevich hairbrush.
"My party, my party, why have you forsaken me," goes this musical Passion of the Rod. "Machine, forgive them, for they know not what they do."
The taped antics of the former governor (and his wife) were, of course, golden for Second City's writers -- who were paid to play. Characters such as Dick Mell -- whose song "Join the Machine" was inspired by "Magic To Do" from "Pippin" -- could not have been invented with anywhere near as much color as in real life. "Just stick with Daddy Mell here," the actor Mike Bradecich sings to the arriviste Rod, as a gaga Patti (Lori McClain) looks on, "and I will make you a star."
Patti's songs can't be printed in this family newspaper. But think about what was heard on tape, and stick those little profane interjections in a ditty such as "I Don't Know How To Love Him," and you'll get the hilarious gist.
Still, there are places where the writers, Ed Furman and T.J. Shanoff, genuinely overachieve. For starters, they come up with a rhyme for Judy Baar Topinka ("great thinka"). There is the Pythonesque explanation of the full Blagojevich moniker Milorad ("Serbian, for one who is named Steve"). But funniest of all is the moment when Rod tells the persistently clueless Roland Burris (Sam Richardson) that his technique of being black for courting the African-American vote was a stroke of genius.
As played with surprising heart by Joey Bland, Blago emerges here as a strangely lovable rogue, a hopelessly ambitious striver from Pepperdine who gets his hand caught in the peppery machine, sells out the kiddies at Children's Hospital for a free meal at Gibsons and even goes after those sweet, kindhearted editorial writers here at the Tribune. For shame!
A goofy Blago certainly was the right call. Not much fun is to be mined from the merely pathetic.
This show, written and rehearsed in a hurry, does not come with the same polish as Second City's mainstage attractions. This cast of passable (at best) singers wouldn't land roles in the shows that form the basis of the parody.
But you'll be laughing too hard to care. This is a textbook example of how Chicago satirists do Chicago gags so much better than their TV counterparts on the coast, because their depth of local knowledge is so much richer.
One amusing subplot involves the clumsy attempts of Patrick Fitzgerald (Bradecich again) to seduce his fellow corruption-fighter Lisa Madigan (played by the impish Lauren Dowden). Looking like one-third of Charlie's Angels, the faux-Madigan holds off the nerdy Irish romancer. On opening night, the real Madigan was in the house, doubled-up laughing, presumably at the very idea.
Where: Second City e.t.c., 1608 N. Wells St.
When: Through March 18 (Tuesdays and Wednesdays)
Running time: 1 hour
Tickets: $14 at 312-337-3992

Beth Phoenix returned to Raw this week to help out Natalya. This reformation of the Divas Of Doom certainly happened at a good time as WWE apparently has plans for them at Wrestlemania.
According to Ringside News, they were told that at Wrestlemania, a triple threat match for the WWE Women's Tag Team Titles will take place between The Boss n Hug Connection, the Divas of Doom and Tamina & Nia Jax.
There was a rumor going around that WWE might have booked a fatal four-way match which would include all of WWE's brands including NXT, but that doesn't seem to be the case anymore.

Voluntary activities fill the gap in public services
Voluntarism finds new ways to take India forward
Published: Sep. 01, 2018
Updated: Sep. 25, 2018
I would like to imagine the voluntary sector in India as an ocean of creativity and endeavour across the vast spectrum of economic and social activity that touches the lives of nearly all Indians in one way or the other.
As a young boy in Lucknow, during the late 1950s and '60s, I used to participate in 'sports competitions' organised by local Puja committees. I once even participated in the Ramlila organised by one of the Kumaon Parishads. These truly voluntary efforts, organised year after year, reinforced social capital and contributed to the syncretic culture of the city by bringing together children from all communities to participate in local 'competitions'. I am sure this continues today.
The reach of the voluntary sector extends from such local efforts to running health services for islands in the mighty Brahmaputra, setting up a public health system for the indigenous people of Gadchiroli in north Maharashtra, putting in place a chain of a thousand primary and secondary schools and organising small and marginal farmers in hill districts for improving yields and lowering costs.
Voluntary activities have complemented and very often filled the yawning gap left by the government and the corporate sector not only in the delivery of public services but also in livelihood generation and building of critically needed public assets.
Livelihood training, nutrition for children and women, innovations in agricultural practices, taking care of leprosy-affected people and the disabled, environmental protection, making cities safe for women and children, pushing for legislation for causes ignored by political processes, making our villages drought-proof…there is an unending inventory of voluntary sector contributions to India's ongoing economic and social transition.
Volunteers, through sheer commitment, creativity and conscientious effort, have bolstered our institutions in a myriad ways, some almost imperceptible in the public domain. Activists in the voluntary sector have, for the most part, carried on not for recognition but because of their passion. No incentive structure, pecuniary or festooned with accolades, could have produced the dedication, diligence and drive that has often characterised this sector.
But there is still a vast number of activists 'waiting to be discovered'. Arun Maira, another quasi-volunteer in his several avatars, once described them as 'fireflies' who are hidden behind innumerable social sub-systems and make these spaces more bearable and often even beautiful. This was in a conversation in 2005 when we were together hosting and interacting with the visiting team of 'seekers of social change' under the aegis of the International Futures Forum.
While wholeheartedly agreeing with Arun on his characterisation of voluntary sector activists, I had a minor technical disagreement. Fireflies, I had pointed out, shine only in the last short phase of their life. But voluntary activists sustain their efforts over long periods of time. The issue, we had all agreed, was to somehow bring together these 'fireflies' so that they could illuminate a much larger space that could then be visible to all and serve as an exemplar to others. Civil Society magazine, in print and on the Internet, serves the necessary role of reporting on these activists so that their efforts and successes can be visible and available to all those who would like to emulate them but don't really know where to start.
But, as with all social phenomena, the voluntary sector, unfortunately, also has its unsavoury side. It has grown in different directions and gone through several mutations. It has grown out of all proportions in terms of sheer numbers today. Recent estimates put the number of 'registered' civil society organisations, commonly referred to as non-government organisations or NGOs, in the country at an incredible two million or one for 600 Indians. Their number is surely larger than schools, colleges, primary health centres and hospitals put together! To my mind, this must be by far the highest number anywhere in the world.
The humungous number of CSOs in India must prompt us to question the very purpose and credibility of these entities that have virtually spawned into a thriving cottage industry. An attempt was made as early as the mid-1980s to bring some order and a light-handed regulatory compliance for this sector when it was first discussed in the Seventh Five Year Plan document. Unfortunately, this attempt to regulate and cleanse the sector of its black sheep, which some argue could well be in a majority, came to no avail.
It is fairly well established that today a very large number of 'shadow units' exist in the voluntary sector. They exist only on paper, but with complete up-to-date financial, regulatory and activity records. They are put to the rather distasteful use of laundering ill-gotten money or even acting as conduits for cash to finance anti-national activities or left-wing extremism.
A standard practice is to 'buy' a readymade CSO with complete compliance documentation as a cover for generation of unaccounted incomes in the past. 'In-house CSOs' are often used to claim credit for CSR activities, on which it has now been made mandatory to spend three percent of corporate profits, without actually incurring the expenditure. Some are used as front organisations for political formations that challenge the Indian Constitution and threaten to overthrow the republic by fair means or foul.
Therefore, platforms like Civil Society should, in my view, lead a campaign to rid the voluntary sector of its black sheep. This would be a major contribution because the sector, with its credibility and legitimacy duly restored, could play a critical role in protecting and indeed strengthening our democratic institutions.
This would, in effect, imply a movement for self-regulation and soul-searching within the voluntary sector. A course correction could not come at a better time. Society is in the throes of rapid and raucous transition along many dimensions. Ongoing urbanisation is breaking down any remaining bonds of kith and kin that could be relied upon to provide social stability and behavioural norms. There is inter-state migration, generally from the northern, eastern and northeastern states to states in the west and south of India. Also, there is upward mobility with the neo middle-class struggling to find its bearings in new environments. The youth and young employment seekers are impatient as ground realities often don't meet their high aspirations.
In these turbulent times CSOs can play a critically important and positive role. But to be able to do so, they must first and foremost establish their own legitimacy and credibility in the public domain. Without such credibility, their ability to intervene in the evolving social situation and promote non-sectarian, non-communal and non-discriminatory dialogue is rendered very marginal.
We will lose an important segment of our polity and social fabric if we permit the voluntary sector to be obliterated. Not only does the sector prop up the public delivery system with its leakages and vested interests, it has the potential to keep an eye on the media, which in recent years has somewhat dismantled its standard operating procedures. But to be able to do that, the voluntary sector must burnish its own credentials by deep introspection, diagnosis and self-remedy. It will be impractical and perhaps dysfunctional in the medium term to expect or ask state governments to supervise and regulate the sector.
The NITI Aayog has followed up on the implementation of re-registering CSOs with their PAN card numbers and Aadhaar numbers of their promoters on its Darpan online portal. At last count only about 43,000 CSOs had availed of this opportunity.
Registering on Darpan has been made a necessary condition to receive any government funding for the voluntary sector. Given the relative lack of enthusiasm for registration, one must assume that financial resources are certainly not a binding constraint on the voluntary sector.
With the mandatory CSR requirement becoming the new normal in corporate behaviour, an expected Rs 20,000 crore is slated to flow into this sector. The government has taken some necessary steps to try and curtail the flow of 'dubious foreign funds' to this sector. This has been done principally on security grounds. Unfortunately, as often happens, some 'genuine' and well-performing organisations may also have been affected. This, once again, underlines the need for self-regulation.
Increasing globalisation is making this world a fiercely competitive village. Only those nations will rise which have all their stakeholders pulling in the same direction with effective convergence on national interests. This will require building strong bonds of trust and bringing all stakeholders together with their diversity and varied world views.
The voluntary sector has often acted as the balm to overcome strong antagonism. I saw and participated in this action in the wake of the 1984 riots. Others have done so across the country at different times. But the need of the hour is for the voluntary sector to provide the glue that will hold divergent views and various stakeholders together as India continues with its efforts to regain its position in the global community.
By building trust across dividing lines of all hues and shades and across the spectrum of social formations, the voluntary sector is destined to play an increasingly important role in the rise of Shreshta Hindustan.
Without a fully legitimised, credible, resonant and vibrant voluntary sector, India cannot hope to ensure that its democratic institutions continue to flourish, its people receive their material dues
and all of us, each one of us, is guaranteed her or his liberty and freedom to choose and lead our lives as we wish to, while constantly serving the national cause.

With the Steelers failing to draft an inside linebacker in this year's NFL Draft, they instead found a player in Thomas who is as intriguing a person as he is a player. Of all the available linebackers in this year draft class, the linebacker out of Florida State had the highest SPARQ score; in other words, Thomas an incredible physical specimen. With the void left by All-world linebacker Ryan Shazier to fill, Thomas' athletic skill set make him the more desirable candidate to fill in the role of starting mack linebacker, alongside veteran Vince Williams. Even with the free agent signing of Jon Bostic, and the emergence of third-year linebacker Tyler Matakevich as a possible candidate for the starting position; many expect Thomas to not only challenge for the spot but to assert himself as the true starter for this coming season.
The only thing stopping Thomas from being the starting linebacker is himself. Admittedly, Thomas has been his own worst enemy throughout his collegiate career and has worked hard to put himself in the right mind space. Thomas is so gifted athletically, he can play either at the inside or outside linebacker position, as he did with Florida State. For him, consistency is key as he needs to perform at a high level each day in camp, participate enthusiastically in special teams, and be the most visible player on the field in their preseason games. For Thomas, this opportunity could be the last chance he has in realizing his NFL dreams, what remains to be seen is how much is he willing to work to make it happen.
Matthew Thomas has the potential and upside to be a very nice addition to the team.


The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged more than 800 points, its worst drop in eight months. The Dow and the S&P 500 saw their biggest one-day drops since early February and the Nasdaq saw the largest single-day drop in more than two years.
Technology companies were among the biggest losers. Amazon lost 6.2% and Netflix dropped 8.4%. Luxury brands like Tiffany plunged 9.5%. And insurance companies took a major hit as Hurricane Michael continued to gather strength and came ashore in Florida.
Tuesday the IMF downgraded its outlook for the world economy, citing concerns about the growing trade war and rising interest rates.
A closely watched inflation measure in the US rose for the first time since June, according to the Labor Department. The 10-year Treasury note hit its highest level since 2011 and the two-year reached its highest mark since 2008. The speedy rise in yields has worried some that higher borrowing costs will lead to a decline in the markets.
